Teacher with gentle touch - Very good at explaining new subj

I try to find the teaching style that is going to work for the student. Are they visual? Do they need to touch to learn? Finding out how to teach them and then helping them learn skills for independent study are just as important as the material.
Web manager and usability analyst as well as instructor. I have been asked at various jobs to teach training classes to my peers because of my ability to deliver an easy to understand lesson. I've been told I am very good at explaining a topic that someone has no experience with at all. I am on contract with NC States Computer Training Unit.

Learning as an Individual, Believing in Your Value

Have worked with elementary age children and have tutored/mentored in the workplace. With many years of work experience with employees of varying skill levels, I understand what it takes to be a valued contributor and understand that students learn in very different ways. Creating a relationship with information that is meaningful to the student is the best way to help them learn a concept or process. Most learning focuses on information assimilation while I focus on applying the concept or process to a real work situation that has meaning to the student.
Discovery with emphasis on individual learning style - for instance tactical or visual instead of instructional - also have worked with kids who have emotional issues or self image issues that hold them back from learning - interested in working with kids who are in need of a someone who sees them as an individual

I graduated cum laude in May 2009 with B.A. degrees in Pre-Med and English/History/Psychology. More importantly, I have tutored biology, writing/grammatical skills, English, psychology, and chemistry to a wide range of students—from college to elementary aged. I hope to put my 4 years of tutoring experience to work for you!

A Little Bit About Me...

My professional tutoring experience began in 1986, when I started work as a graduate teaching assistant in physics. Since then I have taught physics and mathematics--from counting to calculus--in students' homes, in K-12 school and at university. In 2009, I coached general math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, probability and pre-calculus for a private K-12 academy in Durham and also taught both of its math summer sessions. Currently I tutor students through my own home-office private practice and through an independent local tutoring franchise. I also work as a contract tutor with Measurement Inc., through which I provide Title I/Supplementary Educational Services in elementary math and reading to low-income public school students.
My general teaching style is whole-person and learner-centered, with an approach tailored to each student's individual needs, aptitude and attitude. I ... read more

I enjoy working with students and watching their growth and development academically. My approach to each student is different because I understand each will need a different approach. Initially with each student I identify his or her strengths and weaknesses with the material. While building on their strengths, I attempt to change their perspective towards the course material that seems difficult. For example, if a student is struggling with multiplication but has superior addition skills, I will use addition to help them understand multiplication.
As a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I have a proven track record of success. I am currently pursuing a MS Degree at Full Sail University and my current GPA is a 4.0. I completed my BA degree in Music in 2007. While studying at UNC I took extensive course in Education and during that time was pursuing an Edu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The taste of success is a great motivator in education, but students are often exposed to destructive associations of failure. My teaching style is to provide the tools for a student to take accountability for their academic success in order to tap into their learning potential so that they can flourish. My goal is to enable a student to be a successful life-long learner. I am enthusiastic and motherly. I care for students. I adjust my approach based on various types of educational environments and students, traditional and non-traditional, accelerated to learning-challenged. I will work with a student to move beyond “I don’t get it!” in order to put the pieces together.
I have helped others with their approach to learning for over 25 years. I tutored in several subjects in high school, and Algebra I in college. I developed several documents and training sessions during 14 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The foundations of my teaching philosophy are: 1. My primary goal is to teach students how to learn. 2. Teaching must be matched to the student's learning style, not learning matched to the teacher's teaching style. Therefore, teaching style, curriculum, and approach must be flexible, varied, and individual. 3. Empowerment is the key to motivation. Motivation is not something the teacher does to a student; it is something the student does to himself. The teacher's part is to introduce possibilities.
